Original Note:
Note Needed: The 1991 Census was the first to include an ethnicity question (in both censuses in England and Wales, and in Scotland). In short, Britain didn't collect racial data until 1991. https://history.blog.gov.uk/2019/03/07/50-years-of-collecting-ethnicity-data/ Community notes will disprove false claims. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/culturalidentity/ethnicity/bulletins/ethnicgroupenglandandwales/census2021
